Microsoft Releases New Themes And Wallpapers For Windows Devices

Microsoft has released a number of new themes and wallpapers for Windows 8/RT devices. All these themes are based on landscapes of various countries including Alaska, New Zealand ,Sweden, etc,. They have also added a new tab to the Desktop backgrounds page, specifically for panoramic wallpapers. If you have Windows 8 or Windows RT, these wallpapers will automatically extend across dual monitors that have the same resolution setting.

The first is a tour of Queenstown and the surrounding landscape, including the shores of Lake Wakatipu and views of the Kawarau and Shotover rivers. The other, and my new favorite, is a walk through the lush greenery of One Tree Hill Doman and the adjoining Cornwall Park, in Auckland, New Zealand. Fans of our Swedish seasonal themes might have noticed when we published the Swedish Autumn, Swedish Summer, and Swedish Winter themes several months ago, that something was missing. You’ll be relieved to know that we’ve finally filled in the missing season with Swedish Spring.
